Seeking Forgiveness from One Whom You Have Wronged in His Honor

Question:
The questioner says: If I have wronged someone in his honor, do I seek his forgiveness by confronting him about it?

Answer:
Yes, you say to him, "I did such and such to you, so I hope you will forgive me," unless you fear that if you tell him, it will increase his anger toward you. In that case, you do not tell him, but you make du'a for him, you make du'a for him and speak well of him. In the gatherings where you are present, you speak well of him, and you make du'a for him. You do not tell him if it would increase his anger toward you. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
